Director of Finance & Marketing Strategy
What is your role at Dyslexia on Demand?
I am the Director of Finance and Marketing Strategy.
What are your education, certifications, and professional background?
I have a business degree from Texas State University and a background in personal training. I have worked for Fortune 500 companies as a National Sales Manager, and for myself running my own personal training business.
How do you support students, families, and schools?
I help families and schools navigate the financial piece of therapy, along with student placement with their therapist. Finding the right therapist match for a student is my biggest priority, because the relationship between a student and their therapist is one of the most important pieces of therapy. I love when families tell us how perfect the therapist is for their student.
What are you most passionate about in your work?
I love being part of a company that is making a difference in so many lives, every single day. It is my goal to make sure each student is placed with a therapist who understands their individual needs. Seeing that student grow and become a strong reader is the greatest reward.
What are your areas of expertise or special interests?
My background is in business, so I am the behind the scenes business person at Dyslexia on Demand. I love what I do.
What do you hope families and schools experience when working with you?
I want everyone to know that I always have their best interest at heart. Every day I am working to make sure that both our therapists and our families and schools feel supported while they are here.
What do you enjoy most about being part of the Dyslexia on Demand team?
I love that this company truly is a team. We all work together with a common goal, and that is to help anyone who comes through our virtual doors become a better, stronger, and more confident reader and person.
What is one fun fact or personal interest you'd like families to know about you?
My husband and I are empty nesters, so I am the proud mama to two French Bulldogs. We love spending our free time at the beach in Port Aransas, Texas.
